Houston Moms is committed to providing fantastic resources for your family as we transition into a year of Covid schooling.
It’s back-to-school time! While that means something different for every family, Houston Moms is committed to providing you the resources to make sure you {and your family} are successful this school year. A lot of families, whether you are home schooling, doing virtual learning, or learning at school, need help. That help can come in the form of tutoring, learning pods, or any other school assistance program.
We have compiled a great list of tutoring and school assistance resources from around town, some that have physical locations and some that are virtual, that can help you help your kids succeed. We have organized the list into different categories:: Tutoring, Learning Pods, Schools, School Assistance Programs, Virtual Classes and Camps, and Day Care Assistance. It has definitely been a weird year for kids and learning, but tutoring can help bridge that gap that they may have lost during the COVID time off.
